Trang 41 I wish to make a complaint about a recent holiday to Copenhagen.
2 According to the brochure I received from Sunthoms Holidays, the holiday was to include a two-way boat trip to Oslo in Norway
3 However, what your brochure failed to mention was the fact that the excursion was to be paid for separately!
4 Unfortunately, our travel representative forgot to mention this fact until we were well at seat!
5 By that time it was too late to change one's mind
7 I would be grateful if you could make sure in future that all extra costs are clearly shown in your brochure
8 Apart from the above, the rest of our holiday in Copenhagen was wonderful, and both my wife and I fell in love with the Tivoli Gardens
9 What an experience! What an atmosphere! We think a lot of visitors have come there
10 Whatever happens, we shall certainly try to return to Copenhagen at some future date ( I can't say the same about Oslo!)
Your faithful,
Bernard Wilson
